Introduction From massive fleet battles with thousands of pilots to duels between two brave spaceship captains – the EVE Online Universe has it all! Further information about these events, with all the excitement, drama, and triumph or crushing losses, is provided by the EVE community on public killboards. Killboards can help data-mining and might expose behavioral patterns of pilots; they also can give an easy overview of important events and provide a list of top pilots or entities.

Expansions spur trading, both prior to realease and after. The effect of the preparation for Retribution can best be seen in the Mineral Price Index, which rose by 8% from October to November. A rise was to be expected, as Retribution brought new Tech I ships and major changes to many of the already existing Tech I ships. Nocxium, Isogen and Zydrine prices contributed most to the rise in the MPI. The prices of these three minerals rose by 17%, 20% and 26% respectively. The price of Morphite ros...

Greetings Fanfest enthusiasts! I am CCP Tyr, the high priest of fun at CCP and viking master of ceremonies (Lead Event Manager). I can't believe Fanfest 2012 only finished a few months ago and we are already diving head first into the most amazing Fanfest ever – the one that celebrates an entire decade of EVE.

Hello, everyone. The end of 2012 quickly approaches, and what a year it has been. We set out back in January planning to continue the path we started upon in Crucible; to improve the player experience while focusing primarily on core gameplay.

...then this is for you! Christmas, CCP, You, and Our Thanks! Pilots of New Eden, It is that time of year again. The time of year when you curl up in front of the fire with a hot cup of coco... HAHAHA who am I kidding. It's that time of year when you all log into EVE to get away from your family so that you can actually enjoy your holidays! To help support you all through this difficult time of year we have a set of gifts for you.

by CCP Heimdall and CCP Horacex Dear curious EVE players: This will be very different Dev blog because it is the first time we will be formally talking about the history of EVE China, aka, the Serenity server. We will tell the story of how it started, how it evolved and what the latest status is.

The holidays are coming to New Eden again and it's time to spread cheer. Normally, we would allow Sansha Claus to come in his Revenant pulled by 9 Nightmares (one with red spikes) to deliver joy to everyone, but he's still busy locking down random constellations with his whole Incursion shtick, so it falls to someone else to take up the reins. No, we aren't talking about the Thukker Bunny.

Hey all, There's a major back story update ready for your perusal - a seriously major, extensive, positively luxuriant update - so I wanted to drop you a quick note about how we've been fleshing out the lore and where we're taking it. After the advent of the Fiction Portal's launch on the EVElopedia, we haven't been content to sit on our laurels and marvel at the 1,000+ articles already on there.

This spring The Museum of Modern Art in New York, one of the most distinguished modern museums of art and design, will be putting on an exhibition of interactive design in the museum's Philip Johnson Galleries. Working with gaming magazine KillScreen, the MoMA identified 14 games considered exemplar in terms of interaction design, ranging from the original Soviet version of Tetris, The Sims, Sim City, Myst, Portal, Dwarf Fortress to EVE. You can read more about this effort in this blog post on ...

It’s been a while since we released a dev blog on the New Eden price indices and the things that affect them. The last dev blog on the subject discussed the effect of the changes in loot drops, the Burn Jita event and Hulkageddon. These had a major impact on the supply and price of minerals and ice. The focus of this blog stays on the price of minerals and ice.

Introduction The EVE Online universe of New Eden is filled with opportunities to win a fortune – or to lose one. From loan brokers, stock trading and investment banking to more shady activities such as betting, gambling and lotteries – all this emerged from within the EVE community. Lotteries are especially popular and they are easy to understand: buy a ticket and strike it rich! Only one ticket can be enough to win the jackpot, billions and billions, rare or even unique ships; everything seems...

At Fanfest this year, we introduced new technology in our cluster called CREST, that allows us to connect new applications to the EVE cluster in a much more interactive way than the current EVE API. We also announced that we would introduce a Developer License for 3rd party developers for those who want to use CREST in their applications, so that creating apps around EVE would be governed by its own license, not just by the player EULA.
